Résumé de l'étude

This study investigates the combination of standard therapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (chemotherapy followed by surgery to remove the bladder) with immunotherapy using Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) and Atezolizumab. BCG is a live, genetically modified bacterial vaccine administered locally into the bladder. Atezolizumab is an antibody that activates the body's immune system (“immunotherapy”) and is administered systemically. The duration of treatment is 3 months before surgery and 9 months after. The aim of the study is to improve the prognosis of affected patients and to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of this combination.

(BASEC)

Intervention étudiée

The standard treatment consists of:

• 4 cycles (administration every 3 weeks) of chemotherapy with Cisplatin and Gemcitabine before surgery (so-called “neoadjuvant” therapy).

• followed by surgery of the tumor.

 

Within this study, participants additionally receive:

• Before surgery:

- 3 administrations of BCG into the bladder (within 3 weeks)

- 4 cycles of Atezolizumab, along with standard chemotherapy.

• Possibly after surgery (depending on the status of residual disease): 13 cycles (administration every 3 weeks) of immunotherapy with Atezolizumab (so-called “adjuvant” therapy).

 

• The total study treatment lasts between 15 and 20 months (plus/minus one and a half years). After that, there is a follow-up period of 5 years.

 

• As part of the study, regular check-ups and blood tests are scheduled before and after surgery. CT scans are also regularly performed; the effectiveness of the treatment is monitored.
